To photograph truthfully and effectively is to see beneath the surfaces and record the qualities of nature and humanity which live or are latent in all things.

In wisdom gathered over time I have found that every experience is a form of exploration.

I don't know anybody who needs a critic to find out what art is.

Let us leave a splendid legacy for our children...let us turn to them and say, this you inherit: guard it well, for it is far more precious than money...and once destroyed, nature's beauty cannot be repurchased at any price.

If you have enough craft, you've done your homework and you're practiced. You can then make the photograph you desire.

Myths and creeds are heroic struggles to comprehend the truth in the world.

The only things in my life that compatibly exists with this grand universe are the creative works of the human spirit.
